Beauty in motion

At Londji we love tops, and we’re not alone in the fascination for these wonders. In the 20′s of XXth century, the Bauhaus designer Hirschfeld-Mack made a top with seven variously color paper discs to experiment with the relationship of shape and color. Also the best-known designers and architects Ray and Charles Eames where so captivated in these toys and its movement, that in 1969 they filmed a short-film with 133 different spinning tops from around the world.

133 tops but none like ours! At Londji We wanted to drop a grain of sand in the top’s world, for this reason we have recovered the traditional wooden twist top to give it new shapes and colors. Can you imagine strawberry shaped tops? Or drop of water shaped? Don’t you think they’re amazing?
